What is Advanced Fingerprint Identification Technology (AFIT)?

Advanced fingerprint identification technology or AFIT is the next generation biometric identification that will allow the system to be much faster and superior than it already is. This is a concept that all crime-fighting units and many biometric companies including M2SYS Technology were working on back in 2010.

The FBI is more active about this advanced fingerprint identification system because they wanted to increase the accuracy of their biometric search and replace the AFIS or automated fingerprint identification system they were using. The FBI implemented the NGI or Next Generation Identification in 2011. This report features that the FBI replaced a 92 percent accurate system with the advanced fingerprint identification system and the new system had an accuracy of 99.6 percent.
